About Tere Ishk Mein: Plot

Tere Ishk Mein is billed as a spiritual successor of the 2013 hit, Raanjhanaa.

Set against the turbulent, deeply spiritual backdrop of Banaras, Tere Ishk Mein portrays an emotional and dark love story between the lead characters, played by Dhanush (as Shankar) and Kriti Sanon (as Mukti).

Shankar and Mukti’s romance is complicated, flawed and filled with betrayal. When Mukti decides to marry someone else, the heartbreak triggers Shankar’s descent into rage and vengeance, turning what begins as love into obsession.

The film is based on themes of love, loss, heartbreak, obsession and revenge, highlighting boundaries between passion and toxicity.
